Parents and educators know that children with special needs have gifts and talentsâitâs just a matter of unleashing their full potential, and making sure that their parents and teachers have the right information, tools and support to help them. Thatâs where Special Education Guide comes in.
Answer Wiki. The ionic charge of oxygen is -2. You can tell because oxygen is in group number 6, so it has 6 valence electrons. Since it needs 2 more electrons to become neutral with a full outer shell of 8 electrons, its charge is -2 (since adding electrons gives a negative charge).
The charge \(Z\) of the nucleus of a fluorine atom is 9, but the valence electrons are screened appreciably by the core electrons (four electrons from the 1s and 2s orbitals) and partially by the 7 electrons in the 2p orbitals.
